# Assets on the map

> The Map view of the asset register - one pin per building, showing what the assets inside it are worth and what condition they are in.

Source: https://app.assetlab.ca/docs/asset-management/assets-map

The **Map** view shows the asset register on the same map the rest of AssetLab uses. Each building you have placed draws as one pin, and the pin reports what the assets inside it add up to. It answers the question a list can't: *where is the money, and where is it wearing out?*

> [!note] The Map tab is available to **Managers and Administrators**, and appears once at least one of your buildings has a [map position](/docs/asset-management/locations). It reports replacement value and FCI, so it carries the same role bar as the financial columns of the asset list. Until a building is placed there is nothing to plot and the tab stays hidden.

## Reading a pin

A pin carries three things at a glance:

- **Colour is the building's Facility Condition Index** - green under 5%, amber from 5% to 10%, red at 10% and above. Grey means there is no FCI to show: either no asset there carries a replacement value, or less than half of the building's value belongs to assets with an in-service date and service life, too little to state an FCI from. Grey is missing data, not a building in good repair, and the panel says which.
- **Size is replacement value.** Pin area is proportional to the current replacement value of the assets inside, scaled against the largest building on the map, so the biggest circles are where the capital sits. This holds whether your portfolio is worth four million or four billion.
- **The number inside is the asset count.** The building name appears under the pin as you zoom in.

Pins are not clustered. A cluster could only tell you how many buildings it swallowed, which would hide the one thing the map is for. Where pins overlap, the largest is drawn underneath so the smaller ones stay clickable.

## The panel

Click a pin for the full rollup of that building:

- **Facility Condition Index**, with both of its inputs shown - the deferred renewal cost and the replacement value it is divided by. FCI is deferred cost over replacement value, so lower is healthier, the opposite of a condition score. An asset counts as deferred renewal once it reaches the end of its service life.
- **Replacement value**, and value per square foot when the building records a floor area. This is the number that gets benchmarked against comparable buildings.
- **Condition mix** - how the building's assets fall across the standard condition scale, as a bar and as counts. Assets with no condition score yet are counted as unscored rather than quietly dropped.
- **System classes by value** - the four heaviest system classes in the building, each with its asset count, replacement value and its own FCI. This is what tells you *which* part of the building is driving the number.

If some assets in the building carry no purchase cost, a line says how many. They are still counted in the asset total and the condition mix; they simply contribute nothing to the value and FCI figures.

## Filters apply

Site, building, location, classification, status and text search narrow the map exactly as they narrow the list, and the map draws the whole filtered set rather than the page you are on. Every number on a pin is calculated from the assets that survive your filters - so filtering to HVAC gives you HVAC replacement value per building, and a building with no HVAC drops off the map entirely.

The basemap switcher, aerial imagery and 3D buildings all work here, the same as on the [buildings map](/docs/asset-management/locations) and the [infrastructure map](/docs/infrastructure/map).

## What is not shown

A line above the map counts the assets left out. An asset is not counted when it belongs to no building, or to a building that has no map position yet. Both are fixed the same way - give the building coordinates, or move the asset into one that has them - and nothing about the asset itself needs to change.
